British naval wooden rammer for 6-lb cannon, dated 1749. 850 grams, 31" long. Basically a long wooden rod with wider tamping end marked with date 1749 and other numbers and letters and terminating in a lead disk held in with iron nails (one burl-void and some chipping of the wood at that end), the other end with steel loop-cuff, tiny tacks in handle at what appear to be intervals of some unknown significance.
